Because we love the Lord

Kamusta ang pamilya ko! We had another great week in Darasa! We just had zone training meeting and zone interviews this week too. I sure love my president. Our new focus in our mission is working with the members. We will being going around to all the families in the word and showing them the work of salvation video. And then practice teaching with them the How to invite their friends. That is where our mission has seen the most success. Through working with the members. President said that our mission in the Philippines is one of the top baptizing missions. We are excited to take a new look and have a new focus. I am giving the workshop this week in our meeting and President is coming! Haha, no pressure.... We have began to teach the Orlina pamilya. There are 10 ppl in their family and they have baptismal dates! All except the father! We are so blessed to find and teach a whole family. They are so humble and receptive to our message. We taught them how to pray. Then the daughter Rae gave the closing prayer. As we all knelt together on their humble ground the spirit swarmed into the room. She began to cry unto her Father in heaven. THe room was touched with the spirit of heaven. They have many trails in their life. Heavenly Father prepared them to hear the message of the restoration. The family is so connected to heaven. The nanay said, i can not see heavenly father, but i know i can talk to him. He listens to me. Tapos, we taught Mary Fae this week. She also felt the spirit in the lesson. After the lesson she said, "i always feel different when you guys come. I feel the room is different". She is also very receptive to the spritz. She has a baptismal date, but has not came to church yet. Two elders from our ward are leaving on missions! They are going to Davo! The ward some how found out my first name and that i dance. Now when they see me they always will do a little ballet dance for me. They want me to teach dance to the primary. But, President said that it is bawal for this mission. Sayang. The area is starting to know me everywhere. All the little children yell at me every day, hello sister Reed!! They all run up to me and want to shake hands. A little boy, justin, will run up to me and hold my hand as we walk down the riles of Darasa. he is so cute. When they are old enough, they will all be wonderful investigators. I am so grateful to be given hard assignmetns from President. I am growing and feeling ever so close to my Heavenly Father. I know that we are His children and that he always has a plan for each one of us. Mahal na mahal kita! Walang hangang na mahal :) Sister Reed
